One proposes an approach to fractional Fourier's transform, or Fourier's transform of fractional order, which applies to functions which are fractional differentiable but are not necessarily differentiable, in such a manner that they cannot be analyzed by using the so-called Caputo-Djrbashian fractional derivative. Firstly, as a preliminary, one defines fractional sine and cosine functions, therefore one obtains Fourier's series of fractional order. Then one defines the fractional Fourier's transform. The main properties of this fractal transformation are exhibited, the Parseval equation is obtained as well as the fractional Fourier inversion theorem. The prospect of application for this new tool is the spectral density analysis of signals, in signal processing, and the analysis of some partial differential equations of fractional order.

In this paper, we use a computational algorithm for the inversion of the one and two-dimensional $\mathcal{L}_2$-transform based on the Bromwich's integral and the Fourier series. The new inversion formula can evaluate the inverse of the $\mathcal{L}_2$-transform with considerable accuracy over a wide range of values of the independent variable and can be devised for the functions which are not Laplace transformable and have damping motion in small interval near origin.

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to analyze the dynamic factors of the daily FX implied volatility based on the fractional integration methods focusing on long memory feature and structural changes. Design/methodology/approach - This paper uses the daily FX implied volatility data of the EUR-USD and the JPY-USD exchange rates. For the fractional integration analysis, this paper first applies the basic ARFIMA-FIGARCH model and the Local Whittle method to explore the long memory feature in the implied volatility series. Then, this paper employs the Adaptive-ARFIMA-Adaptive-FIGARCH model with a flexible Fourier form to allow for the structural changes with the long memory feature in the implied volatility series. Findings - This paper finds statistical evidence of the long memory feature in the first two moments of the implied volatility series. And, this paper shows that the structural changes appear to be an important factor and that neglecting the structural changes may lead to an upward bias in the long memory feature of the implied volatility series. Research implications or Originality - The implied volatility has widely been believed to be the market's best forecast regarding the future volatility in FX markets, and modeling the evolution of the implied volatility is quite important as it has clear implications for the behavior of the exchange rates in FX markets. The Adaptive-ARFIMA-Adaptive-FIGARCH model could be an excellent description for the FX implied volatility series
